A couple of fast laps around the 'Ring with the very talented Sean Edwards.

Put it on full screen and strap yourself in! Excellent.

Bloody hell, he's good and smooth. Not sure if i ever saw any opposite lock anywhere and so decisive. Was he last on the start grid?
Great clip!

Yep, very skilled indeed. Some years ago I was on the same course as Sean at Silverstone to get a National B licence but he was in a different class to everyone else on that course. I did nothing with my licence and he went on to be able to do that!

I'm told he's also a very good coach, especially in a 911 http://www.seanedwards.eu

His results speak for themselves but as an aside, he's the son of former F1 driver Guy Edwards.

I guess he was on some form of penalty to start at the back of the grid? His pace would suggest he might be a little nearer the front in qualifying! He made it look very easy and as if he had 100bhp more and better tyres, but the pace was astounding.
Great stuff. :)

Mike.
I feel sure this has been posted before here on DDk, I remember watching it before I knew what a carrera engine looked like. :)

I presume it`s Jacques Le Friants workshops, he posts frequently over on the Registry.

Regards, Mike.
